And with the iPhone bringing multi-touch to the masses... the possibilities are endless. I can't think of a better way to get people using what is after all a radical deviation from the norm... and once they're using it, they'll want it on their computer...

And if Steve Jobs says that Apple Inc. (sic!) is 5 years ahead of the competition regarding cellphones, then we FingerWorks users must be like ten years ahead of the competition regarding computer input (including 5 years ahead of Apple ;)

Yes! and I just figured out one way to explain why FingerWorks guys terminated their activity: It would be a much brighter future for the technology with Apple than without. Maybe Apple made a commitment to resuscitate the ToutchStream against their saved asses

It would make it easier to understand why they could accept in the first place and also the amazing silence since then. After all, secrecy is Apple's way of life

Boot time is exactly nine seconds (after P.O.S.T.), making a backup image of the system drive takes exactly 15 seconds (because my data hard drive is so slow ;) and the rest of the OS behaves, well, just like if everything always were kept in RAM (what it is ;).

Could never go back to a mechanical drive -- nor to a "mechanical mouse" of course.

Not only is FingerWorks' multi-touch technology being used in the iPhone, look at the SMS or Mail demo on the site. They show an evolution of the English spelling correction - what the tech would be like if it was tightly coupled with the OS.

I have to say that I'm really glad and really happy to see FingerWorks technology being advanced. I hope to see a larger, tablet-sized Mac portable in about 2 years time. I can't wait to see what else will come out from Apple.

Now that we all know - I suggest we all go on Apple Forums and log into the iPhone forum. Ask Apple to put the multitouch products back into production. I did it this morning. More responses would carry more weight. Thanks for considering this proposal.
